We are uniquely skilled in delivering deep sports massages with very little pain by patiently applying pressure as your muscler relax and allow us deeper. Compare this to the typical approach to sports massage that seeks to overwhelm the tight or spasming muscle. While this approach is effective, it is painful and even incurrs bruising.
For athletes and those who exercise frequently, muscles become tense and tight and imbalances in soft tissue may occur from the repetitive and strenuous nature of the exercise. Sports massage is a form of physical therapy that involves the manipulation of soft tissue to release tension and help the athlete reach peak physical conditioning, to perform better, recover quicker and be less prone to injury.
Sports massage is designed to prepare the body for repetitive, vigorous physical activity. During this type of exercise, muscle tension builds up in the soft connective tissues. Soft tissue includes tendons, ligaments, muscles and more, which are all prone to injuries and lesions that can greatly impact an athlete’s performance.
For example during long-distance running, your body incurs extreme muscular damage due to the impact of hitting the ground for prolonged periods of time. Marathon runners who run in popular marathons like the London Marathon are repeatedly hitting the pavement for sometimes 3 to 4 hours, which damages your joints and tightens your muscles to attempt to protect your body from injury.
We also offer other forms of manual therapy including Trigger Point Massage, Deep Tissue Massage, and Myo-facial Release.

Training Block was created with a mission to support and empower runners, in order to elevate our sport. We do so by giving runners access to a network of local sport performance providers, who provide runners with the care they need from coaching, physical therapy, massage, strength training, and more. We also give providers an easy way to connect with each other and share articles, videos, and other resources that benefit runners and providers alike. For every service booked through Training Block, we donate 10% of our revenues to Training Block’s Elite Athlete Fund, which sponsors elite runners who do not have professional contracts and need financial support for racing at their highest level.
